What is Relational Leadership?
Traditionally, leadership
has primarily focused on the functional elements of one’s position, roles, tasks,
and productivity within a corporate setting.
Relational Leadership holds
the belief that everyone is a leader and has an impact through how they relate
to themselves, others and the world around them. This realm of leadership
includes one’s influence, impact, ability to relate with others, and level of engagement
within the workplace.
The most dynamic leadership
experience is when one unites the functional and relational elements of
leadership for both high productivity and high positivity.
Developing your personal relational
leadership skills is the first step to developing relational leadership within
teams. As your relational leadership capacity grows and you become a more effective
leader, you create a more dynamic, fulfilling, and successful team and work
experience.
